Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

As a first year master's student in linguistics at 
Eastern Michigan University, I know that I am only 
here because of generous donations that you have made 
in the past. Please consider donating again so we can 
continue to pursue our studies while offering the 
latest resources in linguistics:

https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

I started working at The LINGUIST List as a volunteer in 
September 2011 simply because I wanted to gain some experience 
in linguistics and network within the linguistic community. 
It turned out that later that semester, I was offered a position 
as a student worker, and I am still here today. I know that I 
would not have been offered this position had it not been for 
your donations in past fund drives.

Since I have started here, I have been given the opportunity 
to work on LL-MAP, creating digital maps of cultures to be viewed 
on our website (www.llmap.org). I have also been able to use my 
graphic design experience and creatively re-design various parts 
of LINGUIST's website in addition to designing the newsletter and 
other project pages such as this year's fund drive page.

If you donate today, you will ensure that our services for the 
linguistic community will continue, as well as support the work 
of students like myself. I greatly appreciate any donations that 
ensure more students will have the same opportunities that I had.

Thank you so much for your generosity!

There are many ways to donate to LINGUIST!

You can donate right now using our secure credit card form at  
https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

Alternatively you can also pledge right now and pay later. To do so, go to: 
https://linguistlist.org/donation/pledge/pledge1.cfm

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax
return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site,
or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to
LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
